Reporter,
Do you still encounter this issue on newer versions?

This type of crash is rare nowadays and not reproducible. But I still got it a few months ago and since then I have sites' favicons in the tabs yanked even though I migrated to a new profile (thanks to account synching) shortly before that -- so it definitely was not an issue of an old corrupt profile, it gets corrupted anew due to a certain type of crashes.
The most annoying thing is that I have a lot of tabs, so it would take forever to manually click on every tab to reinitialize the favicon data. And I can not disable "click-to-load" option since otherwise, I will get an OOM crash. I wish there would be some script fix this.
I wonder why the SessionStore is so weak in terms of retaining this type of data and why FF's engine does not properly check its integrity and does not try to repair it automatically.
Can you please tell me who is dealing with this area among developers? How can I ask them to look at the issue? I know am certainly not the only one with the favicons disappearing issue. Maybe someone is already working on this.
Thanks in advance.
